A Course Reference Number, often abbreviated CRN, is a unique identifier assigned to a specific class section at an educational institution. This is in contrast to a course number, which follows other conventions and is used to refer to the course itself, instead of a specific section of the course. CRNs are used during the registration process to identify the section of a course the student wishes to register for.

Famous quotes containing the words reference and/or number:
“If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons.”
—Winston Churchill (1874–1965)
“Computers are good at swift, accurate computation and at storing great masses of information. The brain, on the other hand, is not as efficient a number cruncher and its memory is often highly fallible; a basic inexactness is built into its design. The brain’s strong point is its flexibility. It is unsurpassed at making shrewd guesses and at grasping the total meaning of information presented to it.”
—Jeremy Campbell (b. 1931)
